If you’d like to explore The Serengeti National Park then the Lemala properties are a great choice. They’re spread all over the Serengeti and include premium luxury lodges. The Serengeti may well be home to the world’s finest array of wildlife. You’ll find the best concentration of game in all of Africa.

The Lemala lodges cover much of the Northern Circuit. Some of the highlights include Wild Waters Lodge. It’s mid-stream on the Nile on its own private island. You’ll arrive at the island by helicopter or canoe. Waking up by the River Nile every morning will be an unforgettable experience.

Lemala Nanyukie is one of the more recent additions to the Lemala portfolio. It’s located in the Serengeti National Park in Eastern Serengeti, right in the heart of Africa.

Thornybush has a collection of game lodges on its own private reserve in Sabi Sand and Thornybush Nature Reserve in Kruger Park. It borders Kruger Park – the animals are able to pass between the two. Thornybush has many highly knowledgeable guides who will show you the extraordinary wildlife in the Greater Kruger Park area.

It all comes down to what type of safari experience you’d like to have. They can offer Big Five safaris, romantic safaris, solo safaris and wellness safaris. The lodges are all very impressive. You can stay in a luxury tented camp, a game lodge or a villa. Thornybush emerged as one of the first private game reserves in 1955. They oversaw the translocation of a herd of elephants from Kruger, later introducing cheetah and black rhino.

Royal Malewane is the big highlight at Thornybush. It’s next-level luxury and it has excellent all-inclusive options. There are eight suites featuring classic African design influences with a colonial twist. You’ll have a private plunge pool on your deck. You might see wildlife roaming around as you recline in the tub. This is also a great way to wash off the dust after your game treks.

If you’d like to take the luxury to another level and you have a larger group, Africa House is a six-bedroom villa with a private chef. You can unwind at the bush spa and even pump some iron at the gym (if all the game trekking doesn’t give you enough action).

Safari drives are included. Perhaps the big highlight of Royal Malewane is the guides. They’re considered to be among the best in Africa so you’ll be in very capable hands when you set out on your safari adventure.
